Geting MakeFont and OpenGL to work
Jan 21st, 2008, 1:44am  
I'm new to this (24 hours). If this request is in the wrong place, please forgive me.

Though I am new Processing I have been using Java for five or six years and programming for almost four decades. Consequently, when I downloaded Processing, I grabbed the short version. I didn't bother with Java as I already have Java 6 on my machine. Only after I had problems did I see the note that Java 5 breaks some things in Processing. ::sigh::

I downloaded the larger version and copped the Java subdirectory into the Processing directory I had already created. As there no installation instructions or readme I figure I was done. The font Creator did not work before or after this, but at least now it doesn't hang Processing.

What can I do to resolve this?

Seems like a bug. You're getting this error from the create font menu option or the createFont method?

The problem occurs when using the Tools menu item "Create Font...". I have successfully used the createFont method to accessed installed fonts.
